this doesn’t actually force them to open in the background, it just doesn’t force them to open in the foreground. any page that has a code call to bring page focus to the front will still do so after these changes are made, thusly not ‘forcing’ them to open in the background.

Email Client Thunderbird Portable
1. Browser Firefox
2. IE
3. Chrome

I use the [Ctrl] key when I click the link, it also forces to open in the background.
Then I can choose to open or not open in the background.

I start everyday by checking the email, it is sorted from the start in folders (I get a lot of emails) your newsletter are among other newsletters, I then mark and open them all the newsletters at the same time [Ctrl]+[a] then press [Enter] you all know this :-) then I have up to 20 newsletters open in each tab.

In your news letter there are many links of interest, but just like you I want them to pen in the background, so when I click on a link I just use the [Ctrl] key at the same time, then when I have gone through all the newsletters, I can then go to Firefox and read each tab and close it when done.

I prefer this instead of letting all clicks open in the background.

I hope it wasn’t to confusing :-)

The position of screenshots in the firefox category seem wrong, the first one is with the modified value and the second one with the default one; shouldn’t it be opposite? Also, “change he value.” instead of “change the value.”
